Controller-based Wireless Access Points & Instant Access Points

The Dell W-Series Controller-based Ecosystem is ideal for organizations that seek maximum security, functionality and centralized management features. This architecture can enforce policies and security from one console and meets stringent government and military encryption certifi cations. Controller-based ecosystems can also serve as a termination point for your Virtual Private Network. Dell W-Series Instant Access Points (IAPs) combine enterprise capabilities with entry-level simplicity. These intelligent 802.11n devices have a built-in virtual controller and firewall, and require no additional licenses. IAPs can be setup in minutes: simply configure the first device and the other IAPs automatically form a unified cluster. You can add more capacity by simply plugging in more IAPs. The devices can even migrate to a controller-based ecosystem if you ever decide to expand to a centralized wireless network. The Instant AP portfolio offers several Wired + Wireless IAPs that are ideal for remote APs for teleworker and branches. Easily deploy, configure and grow your network with Dell.
